you expose how detached the president is, as it relates to the budget dole and the deficit. he has a lack of relationships. you're best known for watergate. here we have a situation in benghazi, a known hot bed for terrorist training, an ambassador writing in his diary that he felt his life was in jeopardy. he requested additional security and it was denied. the libyan president said it was a terror attack from the very beginning. the white house went out there with this line that this was spontaneous with mortars and rocket-propelled grenades. it had nothing to do with america and the anniversary of 9/11. it was all based on a movie trailer. all of this story is unraveling. i would think, as a reporter, i am not a reporter, you are known to be a great reporter. this would be a gold mine. why are your colleagues in the media ignoring it? >> well, actually, some very strong stories have been done -- in the washington post -- they have. there is more to be done. clearly there is a disconnect -- i just want to correct one thing about what i say in the book about obama. i don't

romney's tax cuts will add $5 trillion to the tax cuts. >> if it's true it's not going to add to the deficit, that leaves only one option. that's asking middle class families to foot the bill. >> the president's charge of a $5 trillion tax cut is obviously inaccurate and wrong. >> reporter: romney also in ohio mocked the obama campaign's latest add to cut funding for pbs. >> big bird. big bird. he's focused on saving big bird. it's kind of a strange thing in my view because i'm focused on helping the american people get good jobs. >> reporter: sesame street asked the president to pull the big bird ad. >> twice in the six month lead up you had bombings at our compound there in benghazi and it's 9/11 in libya. what other warnings do you need? >> reporter: warnings for president obama romney's closing the gap. the latest poll, reuters has them tied, gallup has him up by 2 and q has them up by 4. >> reporter: we were talking about polls in the battleground state. it also looks like according to other polls that pennsylvania and michigan may no longer be safe bets for the president. lynn? >> trac

in fact, my first couple years we had half billion dollar budget deficits we were trying to eliminate from our budget. the thought of not only bringing back 30 million that we lost a couple years ago, it's only a small amount compared to what we have had to cut the last couple years and i think everyone has seen the impact of not having enough money for muni, having to close down services vital to our city, not having money to build affordable housing for our police officers, our fire fighters, our nurses, our public health system, i think we all see the benefit of that. >> starchild, you made a comment earlier that you agreed with the supervisor with the exception of the registration fee for all the businesses. is that the only issue that you disagree with or are there other issues that you disagree with? >> that's the only issue. the issue is that we shouldn't be transferring more money from the people of san francisco to the government of san francisco. government has grown so much in recent years and now we're in the middle of an economic downturn when people are hurting. thousand
